The medical community, the media, and even government agencies are bombarding us with research about their powerful effects. Antioxidants can keep your heart strong, your mind sharp, and your body youthful. Antioxidants are multi-faceted and have incredible potential for prevention against hundreds of diseases. They work in our bodies asscavengers—chemically active substances that can inactivate harmful substances. These harmful substances are called free radicals, attacking tissue and DNA, causing unhealthy mutations and irreversible damage. Unfortunately, we can’t hide from these pesky molecules that, over a lifetime, can slowly gnaw away at a healthy body. A premium source of antioxidants can be found in richly colored fruits. The very compounds that give fruits their color and flavor are also the same substances that are excellent natural antioxidants and may be even more important nutritionally than their vitamin content. These phytonutrients are the reason that increased consumption of fruits has been linked to prevention of cancer, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, obesity, longevity, bone health, aging, neurodegenerative diseases, and many other diseases.*
Our Açai Pure Brazilian Superfood Supplement concentrates the nutrition of the açai berry quickly into a stable, easy-to-take supplement. We start with the highest quality organic Açai berries and immediately freeze-dry them to preserve their high nutrient value. We combine it with another antioxidant powerhouse, Green Tea Extract, standardized to epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the most potent of Green Tea’s antioxidant compounds. The antioxidants in green tea are responsible for the wide range of health benefits and healing properties, all of which are related to its destruction of free radicals. Free radical damage has been linked to premature aging and numerous health conditions. Human Clinical studies have also shown that that EGCG-rich Green tea extracts may increase 24-hour energy expenditure and promote fat oxidation by a process known as thermogenesis.
The Acai Tree is a palm tree that grows in the Amazonian region of South America. The tree produces a small, round purplish-fruit similar to a grape, with a nutrient pulp and a hard seed. Açai is considered nature’s perfect food by nutrition experts because it has more antioxidants than blueberries, plus essential fatty acids and a natural energy kick. Açai is one of the richest iron food sources; iron is necessary to transport the oxygen to the cells.
Tea is one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world today, second only to water, and its medicinal properties have been widely explored. The tea plant, Camellia sinensis, is a member of the Theaceae family, and black, oolong, and green tea are produced from its leaves. It is an evergreen shrub or tree and can grow to heights of 30 feet, but is usually pruned to 2-5 feet for cultivation. The leaves are dark green, alternate and oval, with serrated edges, and the blossoms are white, fragrant, and appear in clusters or singly.
